OT sometimes
Laws, why do we have laws..
We have laws so that bad people act like good people. Actually, that doesn't work really, because law enforcement isn't "perfect enough" to keep bad people from acting badly, there's simply too many bad people and not enough law enforcement... Then why? Because good people, when pushed past a certain point, might temporarily lose their "goodness" and decide to act bad... As in: My boss p!sses the h... out of me... Now, in the grip of such emotions, we tend to respond only to primal emotions, anger would lead to hurting people, or even murder. Another primal emotion would be fear, the fear of breaking the law and getting caught can be enough to make a good person, who lost her goodness, act good anyway... I'll be a scared p!ssed of good person, and when all else fails, I'll follow the law... Will~ P.S. don't mind me.... it's already been a long day.. and it's only 12:23pm |
